GOOD MORNING ☀️ #NOSTR

Bird of the day: White-crowned sparrow

Adults have black and white stripes on their head, a gray face, brown streaked upper parts and a long tail. The wings are brown with bars and the underparts are gray. Their bill is pink or yellow. They are similar in appearance to the white-throated sparrow, but do not have the white throat markings or yellow lores.

have a nice day

Love their song. I heard one about a week ago... overwintering bird i guess. More of a May bird here

Have you ever used the app Merlin Bird ID? It’s really fun.

Not really. I would possibly use if i was birding in a totally new area where i didnt already know most of the species. Ive been seriously birding for about 25 years, not to say i dont sometimes get stumped

Oh you’re an old pro. You definitely know a lot more than I do 😄 I find the app fun for learning as a newbie

You definitely have a keen passion. Keep up the good work. Spring is nearly in full swing and with it, millions of birds are coming!
